Zoe Hitzig, a poet and Ph.D. candidate in economics at Harvard, will be next up in the Watermill Center’s Viewpoints lecture series, on Wednesday at 5:30 p.m. A reading of her work will be followed by a guided conversation and question-and-answer session.

Poems by Ms. Hitzig, the author of “Mezzanine” (Ecco/HarperCollins, 2020), have appeared in The New Yorker, The London Review of Books, The Paris Review, Lana Turner Journal, Harper’s, and elsewhere. She has written prose for Bomb, Wired, The New York Review of Books, and Prac Crit, and is the poetry editor of The Drift, a quarterly magazine of culture and politics.

Covid permitting, the talk will take place in person at the center and be streamed live via Zoom. Tickets are $25, $15 for the stream. Registration for both is through the center’s website

Two large, brightly lit vending machines dominate the space, with offerings ranging from sea salt crackers and slabs of French butter to jars of caviar and curated gift boxes — and, of course, cheese.
